You control a red piranha with your 4-way joystick eating all the dots on the screen while avoiding four squids that are after you. The four corners each have a "energizer pellet" that, once eaten, allows you to attack and eat the squid who were chasing you. Clearing all edible objects from the screen advances you to the next screen.
